He had three touches in the box apparently, two of which were the penalties!

Half way through my first play through when all the madness in the real world started. As rubbish as everything is now I’m loving my time with this game! But as I can’t have Witcher 3 (or several of my other favourite games): Super Monkey Ball.

Alright, we’ve all had a drink.

It was. Loads of Swiss flags so plenty of support for Fed as you’d expect. I think it was ramped up even more than usual due to what happened at Wimbledon. Think it got to Djokovic even more than usual and he looked pretty dejected when he walked off but from what I’ve read he’s seemed magnanimous about it all.

I was lucky enough to be there tonight. Djokovic was way off his best but you can only play as well as you’re allowed to play. If that’s the last time I see Federer play live I’ll take it! Great performance. That serve. That forehand. Wow!

Sounds like Stan is finding some of his pre-injury form and could have a say, although chances are he’d have to beat Nole, Fed and Rafa in the same slam to win, which is pretty much the ultimate God-tier nightmare difficulty sporting boss rush!

It was ALX but there are loads of those so changed it to AOK. I like to think there’s still a Time Crisis 2 machine with those initials on it somewhere.

Completely agree. As much as I’d love it to be a classic I think Nadal will win in straight sets. As competitive and closely matched as they’ve been I’ve over career I can’t remember ever being truly surprised about the result when they’ve played.

No mention of Konta here? She’s looking good so far. Such an unpredictable player. Always fancy her to throw in a dodgy performance but had a great clay court season so far so you never know. Nice semi-final draw too.

Yep he was dubbed the King of Clay before Rafa wasn’t he? Surprisingly only 1 French Open though.

I was thinking about that the other day. He’s still probably top 5. Nadal, Djokovic, Borg ahead of him but nobody else stands out. He’d almost certainly beat the likes of Kuerten and Bruguera.

It’s a shame Nadal’s upped his level to God-tier as it could have been a fascinating semi-final. As it stands I’d be surprised if Fed even gets to a tie-break, but then again I’m also surprised he’s in a grand slam semi playing brilliantly on his worst surface, pushing 40!

I thought this was going to be the most open French for years but maybe not!

I’d argue that SMB2 wasn’t all that great either. It got pretty gimmicky. Definitely good but not as close to perfect as the original.

Yep, only really going to be one winner for quite a while. I snuck into third with a decent last few weeks but overall too many mistakes over the season to really threaten. Managed to buy or sell Salah and Wilson at the wrong time, pretty much every time.
